Can someone tell me what is being referred to when "PB" is being used?

Thanks!

PB stands for Productive Burping and refers to regurgitating food that gets stuck. It is different to actually vomiting, even though it is bringing up food via your mouth.

Yes, productive burping. I personally have never actually gotten food "UP" with it. The handful of times in the last 19 months its just been slimy. Your body produces "slime" just like spit to lubricate enough to eventually help the stuck food go down. The down side is that if you are in public, well... you cant stop it. Just go to the bathroom and spit it up until the food goes down. For me it is completely clear and then after 24 hours of liquid and soft food.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
